Looks like the same version. I got mine in June of 2020.

If you're new to the concept of 'expert witnesses', they're people with some level of experience in a field or on a topic, with opinions that match the viewpoint needed in a legal case.

While it would be possible to hire someone who would say the opposite of what you want them to say, it would be foolish to pay them to verbally destroy your legal efforts.

Ideally, the opinions they state will be framed in a way that makes them seem both plausible and credible.

the expert witnesses were perjuring themselves for a payment from someone

Where is this coming from? That's not how 'expert witnesses' are supposed to work. You don't hire an expert witness, then tell them what to say. You hire an expert witness who already says what you need them to say, then you pay them to say that.

So when you say " The 'expert witnesses' are simply saying what they're paid to say", you don't mean that they've been paid to give misinformation, they are giving their genuine expert opinion.

In this case that George didn't die of a fentanyl overdose, but of not being physically able to get enough air into his lungs, due to police restraint.
